It is never a good idea to install random binaries from random sources.

The amount of work and the near impossibility to ensure that every source used, provide reproducibility, is infeasibly impractical. Even if it were practical, not every
pkg/tool
provides source code, so this is impractical.
- Reasons to Trust this Repo
- All the Build Scripts & workflows are completely open-source. You are free to audit & scrutinize everything.
# Everything is automated via Github Actions & Build Scripts WorkFlows --> https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks/tree/main/.github/workflows Build Scripts --> https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks/tree/main/.github/scripts # Build LOGS (BUILD.log] are generated at Build Time & Pushed both to Github & R2
- Complete
RAW
Build Logs is made available with the exception ofPersonal Access Tokens
everytime the Workflows are run.- Both
SHA256SUM
&BLAKE3SUM
are automatically generated right after build script finishes.- If it still doesn't inspire confidence, there's a Docker Image you can Configure to Run & Reproduce any Binary/Build Script on your own Secure System.
- Dockerfiles: https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks/tree/main/.github/runners
- Note: Checksums may not be reproduced reliably (See Reason Below)
- Reasons NOT to trust this Repo
- Repos that already publish pre-compiled static binaries, nothing is changed (Other than stripping Debug Symbols & Comments). You can compare checksums.
- However, for repos that don't publish releases or at least not statically linked binaries, there is no way for you to end up with the same binary even when you use the same build scripts. In this case,
checksums
are meaningless as each build will produce different checksums. Your only option is totrust me bro
or:
- Fork this repo : https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks/fork
- Read & Verify everything : Scripts & Workflows
- Read the DOCS & Setup your own Infrastructure.
- You may contact me at: https://ajam.dev/contact if you need help setting up your own.
- First, it's important to verify that the alert is NOT a False Positive and truly confirm that indeed the Binary is Malicious
- Second, check the affected Binary's Build Script, the latest BUILD.log & finally CHECKSUMS
- Third, if you find everything is as it should be, create an Issue & attach Verifiable and Reproducible Proof.
- It's important to NOTE that I DO NOT WRITE/OWN the binaries I compile and CAN NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE if the
Devloper
has DELIBERATELY made it Malicious. If that's the case, it's best to Notify Me (Create an Issue OR Contact Me) & also Report To Github the Original Repo like here: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/63603- All of the Build Servers follow Standard Security Hardening to mitigate Supply Chain Attacks, so a single Malicious Binary is more probable than ALL of the binaries being Infected.
- Once again to reiterate, the source code of the packages or tools compiled here is not controlled in anyway.
- The process involves fetching the code and following standard build procedures which are well documented and the scripts available to audit.
- In the case of binaries, whose upstream developers do not provide source code (ngrok, Twingate, etc.) OR themselves provide a pre-compiled static binary (Github Releases), the binary is simply fetched AS-IS (Other than stripping Debug Symbols).
- It cannot be guaranteed that the upstream source is entirely safe or legitimate. It's upto you to exercise basic common sense and vigilance when using these binaries.
